Bologna, Italy
Electric Bike Rebates and Tax Credits

Residents of Bologna or those who work in the municipality of Bologna for a company with a mobility management agreement can apply for an incentive if they are purchasing an assisted pedal bike or cargo bike. The maximum incentive is €500 for assisted pedal bikes and €1000 for cargo bikes with an assisted pedal, but the incentive cannot exceed 50% of the cost incurred for the purchase of the bike and cannot be combined with additional state benefits or incentives provided by other organizations. The initiative is financed with funds from the National Operational Programme for Metropolitan Cities 2014-2020 and individuals can apply until the available fund is depleted, for bikes and cargo bikes purchased no earlier than June 29, 2022. Required documentation includes an invoice for the purchase, technical specifications (for cargo bikes only), a 16-euro tax stamp, and declaration from the Mobility Manager (for non-residents only).
